I think there are two related, but seperate problems here:

1. Undo doesn’t work for the actions of toolbar buttons and shortcuts
2. Using the toolbar buttons breaks the edit history of the input so using Ctrl + Z actually does really unexpected thing.

Is 1) really a problem no editor in the web has solved yet?  
Same for 2) which is _really_ confusing to users.
